AI Employee Onboarding Agent
An agent that coordinates everything a new starter needs across HR, IT, payroll and managers, and keeps it on track.
The Business and the Problem
The business
An illustrative $30 million company hiring about 60 people a year across several locations.
The problem
- New starters need accounts, documents, equipment and training.
- HR coordinates IT, payroll, benefits and facilities by email.
- Tasks are missed and reminders are manual.
- Experiences vary from one manager to the next.
What it costs
HR spends hours on coordination, new starters wait for access and equipment, and compliance tasks are sometimes missed.
